cake shop sells cakes
pos were offered cakes
pos wanted payouts

So if a big black British man called Wesley went to McDonalds and ordered a big mac and they said "We don't serve burgers to n*****s but you can have fries"

IYO that's not discrimination because they sell fries and were offered fries?

That's a poor analogy. The baker is not refusing to sell a particular good to the gay couple. He will sell them cakes, cookies, pastries, whatever. He is only refusing to use the artistic expression side of his work in support of a gay marriage.

It is also far less arbitrary than saying a black man can buy a burger or not fries, which is not a rational decision at all.

Also the baker, if I recall directly, has refused his services to numerous groups, such as those throwing divorce parties.
